Southern League Division 1 South & West
Gosport Borough 0-1 VTFC
Attendance: 284
I was very grateful this match was on after a long journey down south! An early phone call indicated that the game would go ahed but there were no guarantees until the referee had inspected the pitch at 5pm. I had to be on the road long before that and I was so glad my gamble to travel paid off.
It was a entertaining game in which VT dominated the first half. Borough were fortunate to be just the one goal down. VT looked a yard quicker and missed numerous chances to extend the lead given to them after 20 minutes by Paul Sales. One of these chances included a penalty miss, in which Boro 'keeper Matt Willshire saved a Lee Bright effort.
Borough closed down VT a lot better in the second half and had most of the possession but they rarely threatened with it. The visitors comfortably seen the game out. However the game ended on a sour note when in the final minute Sales was carried off with what looked like a serious injury.
